FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. In this example environment 100, an application 120 is installed in a terminal device 110. User 140 may interact with application 120 via terminal device 110 and/or an attached device of terminal device 110. The application 120 may be a social application, such as a content sharing type application. The application 120 can provide one or more services related to the media content item to the user 140, including creation, publishing, browsing, commenting, forwarding, etc. of the media content item. As used herein, a "media content item" includes one or more types of content, such as images, image collections, videos, motion pictures, audio, text, and so forth.

In environment 100 of fig. 1, terminal device 110 may present page 150 of application 120 if application 120 is in an active state. The pages 150 may include various types of pages that can be provided by the application 120, such as a personal home page, a details page of media content, a content authoring page, a content publishing page, a messaging page, and so forth. The application 120 may provide content creation functionality including capturing, uploading, editing, and/or publishing media content items.

In some embodiments, terminal device 110 communicates with server 130 to enable the provisioning of services for application 120. The terminal device 110 may be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal, or portable terminal including a mobile handset, desktop computer, laptop computer, notebook computer, netbook computer, tablet computer, media computer, multimedia tablet, personal Communication System (PCS) device, personal navigation device, personal Digital Assistant (PDA), audio/video player, digital camera/camcorder, positioning device, television receiver, radio broadcast receiver, electronic book device, gaming device, or any combination of the preceding, including accessories and peripherals for these devices, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, terminal device 110 can also support any type of interface to the user (such as "wearable" circuitry, etc.). Server 130 may be various types of computing systems/servers capable of providing computing power, including but not limited to mainframes, edge computing nodes, computing devices in a cloud environment, and so forth.

It should be understood that the description of the structure and function of various elements in environment 100 is for illustrative purposes only and does not imply any limitation as to the scope of the disclosure.

In the content sharing application, besides supporting the user to share the content, the user can be allowed to establish session communication. For example, a user may initiate a session with one or more other users, including a one-to-one session (also referred to as private chat or single chat) or a many-to-many session (also referred to as group chat). The conversation communication function is provided, so that the communication of the users is facilitated, and the emotion among the users is enhanced. Typically, there is no association between the content exchanged in the user session and the content created and published in the application by the user. In particular, the conversation page aggregates the content of messages sent by multiple users participating in the conversation. One user may need to browse media content published by other users in the content stream of the application or enter the other user's personal home page to view the media content published by the other user. Such content presentation approaches have difficulty providing a unique relationship experience between particular user groups, e.g., private chat users or group chat users.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an improved scheme for content presentation is presented. In this approach, media content items published outside of a session by multiple participants of the session are presented in an aggregated manner in a page associated with the particular session. Compared with the method for independently presenting the contents published by different users, the content presentation mode provided by the disclosure can realize the aggregate presentation of the contents published by the session participants, so that the users can obtain the contents of the specific friends

Some example embodiments of the disclosure will now be described with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 2 illustrates a flow diagram of a process 200 for content presentation, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. Process 200 may be implemented at a client of a target participant, for example at terminal device 110. For ease of discussion, the process 200 will be described with reference to the environment 100 of FIG. 1.

At block 210, terminal device 110 renders a content presentation page associated with the target session.

In some embodiments, a particular application, such as application 120, is running on terminal device 110 and the various pages of application 120 are presented. The presentation of the page may be based on user actions. The application 120 may provide communication services between users. In application 120, a user can, for example, create one or more sessions, each of which can, for example, correspond to a chat with a different user and/or group. For example, one session may correspond to a single chat of one user with another particular user, or one session may also correspond to a group chat of more than two users. Users participating in a session are referred to herein as participants of the session. For example, a single chat may include two participants and a group chat may include more than two participants. Hereinafter, the terms "participant" and "user" are used interchangeably.

The session involved in process 200 is referred to herein as a "target session". The target session typically involves a plurality of participants, with the target participant on terminal device 110 being at least one of the plurality of participants.

Further, as will be mentioned below, the application 120 may also allow a user to create and publish media content items. A "media content item" may include one or more types of content, such as images, image collections, videos, motion pictures, audio, text, and so forth. The user at terminal device 110 may view the media content items that he or she created and published, and may also view the media content items published by other particular users (if having access rights).

Where conversation functionality is provided, other associated pages may be presented in the target conversation page for messaging based on user selection. Examples of such pages may include a setup page corresponding to the target session in which one or more setup functions for the target session may be provided.

For ease of understanding, the following description will be made with reference to the example pages of the drawings. It should be understood that the pages illustrated in the figures are examples only, and that a variety of different page designs may actually exist. The various graphical elements in a page may have different arrangements, different names, and different visual representations, one or more of which may be omitted or replaced, and one or more other elements may also be present. Embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect.

FIG. 3A illustrates an example session page 300 of the application 120. The session page 300 provides a single chat session window for a certain user of the application 120 (e.g., "user a") with another user (e.g., "user B"). Assume that the session page 300 is presented to user "user a" at terminal device 110, which is referred to as the target participant of the session. At the terminal device of "user B", the conversation page presented by it may be slightly different, e.g. the presentation positions in the page of the messages of both parties of the conversation are different.

The conversation page 300 may support messaging for participants of the conversation and may present messages in the conversation. The message may include various types of content such as text, images, video, links, etc. Such content may include content uploaded by the user locally or captured in real-time, shared content, forwarded content, and so forth. In some examples, the session page 300 also supports other communication modalities for the participants, such as voice communication, video communication, and the like.

Fig. 4A illustrates another example session page 400 of the application 120. The session page 400 provides a group chat session window for "user a" of the application 120 for a plurality of other users (e.g., "user B" and "user C"). Assume that the session page 400 is presented to user "user a" at terminal device 110, which is referred to as the target participant of the session. At the terminal devices of the other participants of the group chat, the presented session pages may differ slightly, e.g. the presentation positions in the pages of the messages of the two parties of the session differ. The content presentation of the session page of the group chat may be similar to the content presentation of the session page of the single chat, which is not described herein again.

In some embodiments, an entry of a setup page corresponding to the target session may be provided in a session page of the target session. For example, the "session setup" entry 301 in the session page of FIG. 3A, and the "session setup" entry 401 in the session page of FIG. 4A. If selection of the portal is detected, a setup page corresponding to the target session, such as setup page 302 of FIG. 3B or setup page 402 of FIG. 4B, may be presented. The settings page may provide one or more settings functions for the target session.

For example, in the example of fig. 3B, the settings page 302 for a single chat provides a "multi-chat" function 312 for initiating group chats with more users; a "set top" function 314 for setting the current session to the top in the session flow; a "do not disturb" function 316 to enable and disable new message alerts for the current session; and a "more" function 318 for deploying more functions that can be set for the current session. In the example of fig. 4B, the setup page 402 corresponding to the group chat provides an "invite" function 412 for inviting more users to join the group chat; a "share group chat" function 414 for sharing the current group chat to other users; a "do not disturb" function 416 for enabling and disabling new message alerts for the current session; and a "more" function 418 for deploying more functions that can be set for the current session. Of course, only the exemplary functions in the setup page of the session are given here, and different setup pages may be designed as needed in practical applications.

Referring back to FIG. 2, at block 220, a set of media content items is presented in a content presentation page. The presented set of media content items includes media content items that are each published outside of the target session by a plurality of participants of the currently applied target session.

The media content items published by the participants outside of the target session do not include media content items sent as messages in the target session, but may include media content items created and published by the participants through the content publication page of the application. Such media content items are sometimes also referred to as "works". Typically, users participating in a session may create and send respective one or more media content items in the current application. In some embodiments, the media content items published by each user may be viewed by accessing the personal page of the respective user. Alternatively, media content items published by multiple users may also be pushed as content streams in a particular page of an application.

In embodiments of the present disclosure, an aggregated presentation of media content items published outside of the session by users in the session is also provided in the particular content presentation page. In some embodiments, the presented media content items may include non-textual media content items, which may include, for example, images, image collections, videos, motion pictures, and so forth. In some embodiments, such a content presentation page may include a settings page for a session.

For example, FIG. 3B illustrates the presentation of a collection of media content items published outside of the current session by both session participants, user A and user B, in an area 320 of the settings page 302 corresponding to the sessions of user A and user B. Fig. 4B illustrates the presentation of a collection of media content items published outside the current session by the three session participants of "user a", "user B", and "user C" in the group chat group in area 420 of settings page 402.

The presentation mode can provide a content aggregation space of a specific user group, so that the user can browse the content published by the user and the content published by one or more friends and display the content at the same time. For example, in the example of fig. 3B, "user a" may browse to the exclusive content aggregation space with "user B," while in the example of fig. 3B, "user a" may in turn browse to the exclusive content aggregation space with a group of three people of "user B" and "user C. The method provides convenience for checking member works of a specific group, increases the accompanying feeling and relationship experience among friends, and brings good user experience.

Although in the example embodiments of the figures it is shown that a set of media content items published outside the target session by a plurality of participants is presented in a setup page corresponding to the target session. In some embodiments, the set of media content items may be presented in other suitable content presentation pages in addition to the settings page corresponding to the target session. For example, such a collection of media content items may be presented in a separate page associated with the target session, the entry to which may be set in the session page or other page. For example, the separate page may not provide session setting related functionality as shown in fig. 3B or fig. 4B, but rather directly present a collection of media content items aggregated from multiple participants.

In some embodiments, the set of media content items from multiple participants may be presented in a tiled view, such as the tiled view in the example of fig. 3B and 4B. In some embodiments, the collection of media content items may also be presented in other views, such as stacked views. In some embodiments, the collection of media content items may be organized into a collection of images or videos, or the like, and may be played automatically or manually based on user manipulation.

In some embodiments, when presenting a collection of media content items from multiple participants, the media content items in the collection are arranged mixedly based on one or more preset types of attributes of the media content items. In some embodiments, such attributes may include a time attribute, such as a publication time of the media content item. Such an arrangement allows the user to see a mixed arrangement of his and other friends' works on the timeline.

In some embodiments, when mixedly arranging media content items based on temporal attributes, individual media content items in a collection of media content items may be presented in reverse chronological order. That is, among the media content items of the multiple participants, the media content items that are published closer to the current time may be arranged and presented in a more advanced position, while the media content items that are published farther away in time may be arranged and presented in a more advanced position. For example, the corresponding set of participant media content items may be presented in left-to-right, top-to-bottom order, in reverse order of publication time, in region 320 of page 302 or region 420 of page 402. The media content item located in the upper left corner of the region is the most recent media content item. In other embodiments, the individual media content items in the collection of media content items may also be presented in a chronological order based on the publication time. In this way, media content items that are published less recently may be arranged and presented in a more advanced position.

In some embodiments, the media content items of the multiple participants may be ranked based on other types of attributes related to the media content items in addition to or as an alternative to by publication time. For example, a hybrid arrangement may additionally or alternatively be based on the popularity (e.g., number of times liked, number of times viewed, etc.) of individual media content items, the association of the media content items with the target participants, and so forth. These different arrangements may be configured according to the actual application, and the scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure is not limited in this respect.

In some embodiments, the various participants of the target session act as creators, and access rights for a media content item may be set as desired when the media content item is published. The access rights may include full public access rights, partial public access rights or prohibited public access rights. Media content items with full public access rights may be accessed by any other user. Media content items having partial public access rights may be accessed by a specified one or more users. Media content items with prohibited public access rights may only be accessible by the author himself.

Where access rights for media content items are settable, in aggregating media content items presented for a plurality of participants, if a current page is to be presented to a target participant in the plurality of participants, the media content items in the set of presented media content items may be determined based on the access rights of the target participant to the media content items. In particular, in a page presented to a target participant, the set of presented media content items includes media content items for which the target participant has access rights. It should be noted that the access rights of the user to the work may vary, and thus the content of the presented set of media content items also varies in accordance with the access rights. For example, the access right may be changed based on a forwarding operation of a user, originally, only the creator may access the target work, and after the target work is forwarded to the target session by the creator, each participant in the target session has the access right of the target work, and each participant can see the target work in a media content item set presented on the content presentation page.

In general, the target participants may be considered to have access rights to the media content items that they publish. For another participant in the target session, the target participant may be able to access some or all of the media content items published by the other participant, depending on the setting of the other participant's access rights to the media content items published by itself. The portion of the media content items that the target participant is able to access may be presented in a corresponding page. Based on the access rights, the set of media content items presented will be different in the pages viewed by different users.

In some embodiments, media content items that can be presented in the page presented to the target participant may be filtered by the server of the application 120 based on the access rights and the set of media content items for which the target participant has access rights may be provided to the terminal device 110 for presentation. In some embodiments, the set of renderable media content items may also be filtered based on access rights, either locally at terminal device 110 or at other suitable devices.

In some embodiments, a media content item published by a target participant or other participant may contain information related to the target participant. For example, in some applications, a user may refer to a target participant when publishing a media content item, such as by reminding the target participant by "@" symbol + username of the target participant, etc., to enable the target participant to receive notifications regarding the media content item.

In some embodiments, in aggregate presentation of a set of media content items of multiple participants, media content items having a particular association with a target participant may be identified by a particular identifier. These predetermined identifiers may be presented in the content presentation page in association with the corresponding media content items. For example, in the example of FIG. 3B, a media content item that refers to a targeted participant (i.e., "user A") is identified by identifier 322-1, and a media content item that includes tags of at least one targeted participant or includes interactive operations such as the targeted participant participating in a comment is identified by identifier 322-2, where at least one targeted participant tag may be added by a publisher of the media content item when creating the media content item. Similarly, in the example of FIG. 4B, media content items that mention a target participant (i.e., "user A") are identified by identifier 422-1, and media content items that contain a target participant tag or contain a target participant to interact with comments and the like are identified by identifier 422-2. Further, by triggering identifiers 322-1, 322-2, all media content items under the identifier category may be presented.

In addition to referring to the target participant, other information related to the target participant may also be identified in the media content item. For example, the target participant may take an interactive action with a certain media content item, such as comment, like, forward. In some embodiments, the target participant's interaction behavior may be identified in the presented media content item, such as number of comments, number of praise, whether to forward, number of forwards, and so forth.

In some embodiments, the set of media content items to present the target participant may also be determined based on the association of the media content items with the target participant. In some embodiments, the association of the media content item with the target participant may be determined based on whether the media content item refers to the target participant, or the like. If a certain media content item refers to the target participant, the association relationship between the media content item and the target participant can be determined to meet the preset condition. In some embodiments, the association of the media content item with the target participant may also be determined based on a history of interactions of the target participant with the media content item. The interactive behaviors of the target participant, such as comments, praise, forwarding and the like, with a certain media content item can be used for indicating the association relationship between the target participant and the media content item. The more the number of comments is, the behavior of praise occurs, and the number of forwarding times exceeds a preset value, the media content item and the target participant can be indicated to meet the preset association relationship.

In some embodiments, the set of media content items presented in the content presentation page associated with the target session may include media content items for which an association with the target participant satisfies a preset condition. In some examples, for some other participant, it may be determined that the association of the media content item that it publishes with the target participant satisfies a preset condition and, thus, may be included in the presented set of media content items.

In some embodiments, the target participant may also be allowed to filter the media content items to be presented as desired. The target participant may provide content screening indications to indicate media content items that may be included in the set of media content items to be presented. In some embodiments, the content screening indication may indicate a desired association of the media content item with the target participant, such as a particular association type, or the like. In some embodiments, the content screening indication may indicate one or more interested parties among the multiple parties of the targeted session. The target participant may desire to be able to mixedly expose the aggregation of media content items published by itself with these interested participants. By giving content screening instructions, the target participant can screen out interesting media content items with other users for aggregation according to needs, which is particularly beneficial in the case of more media content items and/or more session participants published by a plurality of participants. Further, the content filtering indication may also indicate a media content item including a tag of at least one target participant or including an interactive operation such as a comment performed by the target participant.

In some embodiments, a filtering control may be provided in the page to facilitate user (e.g., target participant) input of content filtering instructions. For example, in page 302 of FIG. 3B, a "filter time" control 330 is provided. If the control is selected, as shown in FIG. 3C, a drop down menu 332 may be provided that includes a plurality of filtering options, wherein an "only @ me" option 342 is used to filter media content items that mention the targeted participants, an "only me" option 344 is used to filter media content items that contain tags of the targeted participants or contain interactions with comments by the targeted participants, and an "all time with user B" option 346 is used to indicate that all media content items published by user B remain.

Similarly, a screen order "filter time" control 430 is also provided in page 302 of FIG. 4B. If the control is selected, as shown in FIG. 4C, a drop-down menu 432 may be provided that includes a plurality of filtering options, where the "just @ me" option 432 and the "just me time" option 444 are similar to the example of FIG. 3C, and the "all time with TA" option 446 is used to filter participants of interest among a plurality of other participants in the group, including sub-options corresponding to the plurality of other participants, such as the "user B" sub-option 452 and the "user C" sub-option 454. Through option 446 and its sub-options, the targeted participant (e.g., user A) may filter out media content items of users interested in the group chat and may hide media content items of users not interested.

In some embodiments, in addition to aggregating a set of media content items published outside of the session by multiple participants of the session (sometimes referred to as a "first set of media content items" for ease of discussion), the media content items involved in the target session may be aggregated into another set of media content items (sometimes referred to as a "second set of media content items" for ease of discussion) for presentation in the current page associated with the target session. In some embodiments, media content items sent by multiple participants in a target session may be aggregated into another set of media content items. The media content items sent in the session may be media content items uploaded by the participants from local to the target session. In some embodiments, media content items shared by multiple participants into a target session may be aggregated into another set of media content items. The shared media content items may be, for example, media content items published from within the application 120 and/or other associated applications. In some embodiments, the set of media content items to be presented may include non-textual messages, such as images, image collections, videos, animations, etc., sent or shared in the target session.

Through presentation of different sets of media content items, in a page associated with a target session, a user can not only browse the composition aggregation published by the user and friends, but also view the media content items involved in the history of the current session.

In some embodiments, multiple navigation tabs may be set in a page associated with a target session, and different navigation tabs may navigate to different sets of media content.

Fig. 5A to 5C illustrate an example of further setting a plurality of navigation tabs in the setting page 302 corresponding to the single chat session of fig. 3A. In this example, the navigation tag "time of day" 510 corresponds to a collection of media content items published outside of the target session by a plurality of participants of the target session; the navigation tag "chat album" 520 corresponds to a collection of media content items sent by a plurality of participants in a target session; the navigation tag "share content" 530 corresponds to a set of media content items that are shared into a target session by a plurality of participants.

In response to detecting selection of a navigation tag in the page, a corresponding set of media content items may be presented. For example, in the example of FIG. 5A, assuming that the navigation tab "time of day" 510 in page 302 is selected by default, the set of media content items to which the navigation tab corresponds may be presented when switching to page 302. In the example of FIG. 5B, if the user selects the navigation tab "chat album" 520, the local media content items that "user A" and "user B" in a single chat send to each other during the session are presented. In the example of fig. 5C, if the user selects the navigation tab "share content" 530, the media content items that "user a" and "user B" share from other data sources during the session are presented.

In some embodiments, the presentation of the set of media content items sent by the plurality of participants in the target session and the set of shared media content items may be similar to the presentation of the set of media content items published by the plurality of participants outside of the target session. For example, the media content items may be arranged in chronological order or reverse chronological order based on their publication times (e.g., sending times in a session, sharing times, etc.). These sets of media content items may be presented in a page in a tiled view, other view, or otherwise.

Although the examples of fig. 5A-5C present media content items sent by multiple participants in a targeted session and shared media content items in different sets of media content items, in some embodiments, the media content items may also be presented mixed in a single set of media content items, such as setting a single navigation tab in a page, and presenting the mixed set of media content items when the navigation tab is selected.

For a group chat session as in fig. 4A-4C, although not specifically shown in the figures, different sets of media content items may also be presented in a similar manner as discussed with respect to fig. 5A-5C.

In some embodiments, the user is also allowed to click to view detailed information of a particular media content item when rendering a set of media content items that the multiple participants of the target session each publish outside of the target session. For example, if a selection of a media content item is detected, a details page corresponding to the media content item may be presented. For example, FIG. 6A shows a details page 602 of a selected certain media content item.

In some embodiments, if a media content item is selected for detailed viewing, it may also be possible to switch to a content streaming mode to browse the collection of media content items. In particular, individual media content items in a collection of media content items may be organized into a content stream. The content streams may be in the form of long pages comprised of media content items, videos that are merged from media content items, and the like. The media content items may be organized in reverse chronological or sequential order based on the time of publication.

If a particular switching operation is detected in the detail page of the currently presented media content item, switching is performed in the content stream in sequence to a detail page corresponding to another media content item adjacent to the currently presented media content item. As examples, the switching operation may include, for example, a particular gesture (e.g., a swipe gesture), a swipe operation of a particular switching control, a voice control instruction, a triggering of a hardware key, and so forth. Embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect.

As an example, in a chronologically-inverted information stream, if the detected switching operation includes a swipe-up gesture to switch to an earlier-published media content item, then a switch may be made to the earlier-published media content item adjacent to the current media content item in the content stream. For example, detecting a swipe up gesture in the details page 602 shown in FIG. 6A, may switch to the details page 604 of another media content item as shown in FIG. 6B. In this way, the user may sequentially browse through different media content items in a content streaming mode.

In some embodiments, for a set of media content items sent by multiple participants in a target session and/or shared into the target session, a detailed page of a single media content item may also be viewed in a similar manner, and detailed information of other media content items may be sequentially browsed in a content streaming mode.
